    Ashamed to admit...

    :embarrase I have no idea how to install scripts on my servers. I have virtual accounts with Oxeo and Candid... can I install TGP scripts and other scripts(like ad rotaters) myself or do I need an admin to do that for me? :embarrase

    You should be able to install them yourself babe.

    Youll need to know a few things first though..

    1) Server paths to cgi-bin (for perl scripts)
    2) Server paths to sub directories and the likes (much the same as the path to perl)
    3) What version of php / perl you are running (your host can tell you this)

    Other than that, it is pretty straight forward to setup new scripts especially TGP type scripts as most will have some sort of installation process to guide you through the process.

    If you ever get stuck though, the answers will only be a post away

    Regards,

    Depends on your host, Xstr8guy. Most of the virtual hosting I've done I could install scripts myself.

    This is a 'check with your host' kind of response. I don't see why you couldn't do it on Candid. I'm not too familiar with Oxeo.

    you're ashamed to admit that?? i wasn't even sure what language you were speaking....never been on the tech side of the industry though. i'm also not a big one for shame (that's gotten me in trouble!) but what i am embarrassed to admitt is that i don't know how to "bump" a thread...what's that about?

    Thanks Lee!

    Well I do have cgi-bin in my domain folders and they are running PHP4 on the virtual servers... now... do you have a good TGP script that you can recommend... free is nice, but not required.

    Does AutoGallery function as a link list as well?

    Lee and X - we're using Power Seek from Focal Media It's the same program we're using for GWW, but an older version (haven't had time to upgrade that site yet).

    I understand the feeling 'embarassed' - but realistically we all can't be all things, at all times, when it comes to internet business. I am right up there with you in being at the bottom of the learning curve when it comes to scripts and programming. I'm learning some of the lingo, did figure out how to chmod a file ...but beyond that, it's greek to me!

    And from what I saw of the free tgp scripts ... wait til u can afford it and go get that autogallery sql one. You're going to want a lot of the control features that the free scripts just don't provide.

    I'm installing the free version for now... it's really just for a fake TGP (my sites and sponsor galleries). I can afford the other versions, but I'm just checking it out.

    Ah well why didnt you say so LOL

    http://www.gaywidewebmasters.com/freebies/faketgp.zip

    Download that and have a play with it, all ya need to do is change the link codes to the sponsor hosted galleries to your own affiliate id and upload the script files and change the template

    Run doit.php in your browser once the template has been saved and you should be all set
